Real Madrid attacker Vini Jr hailed victory over Girona.

Vini Jr scored in the 4-0 rout.

He said: "It was the best performance of the season. We did everything the coach asked of us. We pressed like we had to and then dropped deeper. That's the difference. When this team is up for it, we're very hard to beat. And this was top opposition today. We have to keep this up to win LaLiga.

“Girona have been on an amazing run. They're playing really well and we knew this was a difficult game and we'd have to be focused and do a good job. When the fans are behind us like that, it makes it very hard for the opposition.

“I don't tend to shoot from outside the box but I felt confident and I didn't get to play the last game and it came off. I'm thrilled but now we have to rest up before Tuesday."
